SOAP AND WATER MIXER.

Application led August 7, 1923. Serial No. 656,230.

T 0 all 'whom it may concern.:

Be it known that HOWARD GRATZ BROWER, citizen of the United States,residing at Chattanooga, in the county of Hamilton and State ofTennessee, has invented certain new and useful Improvements in Soap andWater Mixers, of which the following is a specification.

This inventionrelates to certain'new and useful improvements in a soapand water mixer and has for its principal object the provision of amixer whereby a predetermined amount of soap may be used to cause theproper mixture for a solution of soap and water.

A further object of this invention is to provide a soap and water mixerwhereby a solution of water will be caused to pass through a containerof soap and dispense therefrom thoroughly mixed.

Another object of the invention is to pro- -vide a soap and water mixercapable of be- .ing used in various places where a solution of soapywater is desired.

Further objects and advantages of my invention will appear from themore/detailed description set forth below, illustrated in theaccompanying drawing, and pointed out in the claim. 4

Inthe drawing,- Figure 1 isan elevational view of my improved soap andwater mixer as made in accordance with' this invention, showing itassembled and ready for use,

Figure 2 is a top plan view of the soap and water mixer dlsconnectedfrom the water supply source,-

Figure 3 is an elevatlonal view partlyin section showing the relativeposition of the soa container with the water container,

igure 4 is a side elevational view of the soap container, and,

Figure 5 is a fragmentary, elevational view illustrating a hoseconnection at the outlet end of the container.

Referring more particularly to the draw.- ing,'the soap and water mixerin its referred formv includes a lcylindrical bo y 5 having one endsubstantially funnel-shaped as at 6, and equipped to receive a hose orother (pipe connections as at 7. The funnelshape end 6 constitutes anoutlet for the water in the container- 5 and the opposite end: of .thiscontainer is provided with an annular exterior flange 8, to `which isre- -soapsolution prior to movably 'secured a funnel-shaped head member9, the head member 9 being removably v secured to the annular flange 8of the container 5 by suitable fastening means 10.

The fasteningl members 10 shown on the drawing, are in the form of .awing nut and bolt but any preferable fastening means can be used. But asshown in the drawing, the bolts are permanently secured to the liange 8and the head 9 is equipped with laterally extending diametricallyopposed lugs 11, which embrace the bolts of the flange 8 and Iare heldthereon by the wing nuts 12.

The central portion of the head 9 is provided with a threaded connection13, which is detachably secured to a water supplysource 14 which iscontrolled by a valve 15. The valve 15 controls the inlet ofwater fromthe pipe 14 through the head 9 'into the container 5. y

A reticulated cylinder 16 of a diameter smaller than the interiordiameter of the l vportl the cylinder'16-within the container 5 in sucha position vthat the water entering A through the head 9 will first passthrough the reticulated cylinder 16 mixing with the funnel-shaped end 6.

The brackets 18 engage the container 5 at the point of juncture with thefunnel-shaped end 6 so as to relatively support the cylinder 16 in itsproper position within the container .5 and consequently hold thisreticulated cylinder against lateral movement in any direction.

It is to be understood that' a hose20 can be detachably secured to theconnection 7 of the funnel-shaped end 6 of the container 5 so as topermit the water and soap solution of the container to be sprayed at anydesired point.

passing out ofthe lt is apparent that have provided a compact,inexpensive and convenient soap sindl ltfis further obvious that themixture set yforth is not limited in its application to soap and watermixtures only, but it canhe used for making variousv solutions oremulsions of any desiredsubstance in water or another solvent orvehicle. y

Having thus described my invention? what l claim es new is: I

A soap Water miner comprising n cylindrical container .heaving annneishaped outlet end, a removable head having a water connectionfor'the opposite end oi said container, means to removably connect thehead to said container, a reticulated soap .cylinder having `one endclosed, supporting brackets secured to said closed end, a flange at theopposite end of Said reticulated cylinder, said flange interposed loe-`tween said head and open end of the container, said brackets engagingthe container at its point of juncture with the funnelshaped outwardend9 said brackets and ange positioning the reticulated soap cylinder inspaced relation within the container.
